The best day of my life!! I was on a bus for 11 hours to see his concert in Gothenburg on August 9, 2010. I waited outside the place six hours before they even opened the doors. But it was all worth it, because all of a sudden Serj came out and signed autographs!

  • I briefly bumped into Serj once when I was smoking a cig outside of one of his shows in Detroit. He was under the balcony I was on, and I had a little dialog with him. He seemed like he was drunk, but I could very well have been mistaken. That was like 10 years ago at a concert SOAD did with Slipknot, Rammstein, Mudvaine and Somebody (although somebody didnt play that night) Was an amazing show too. Rammstein put on a hell of a show, and system was touring their Toxicity album. :)

    That is so cool!! What did you guys talk about?

  • @HelenahSwedberg Well, I was like 16 at the time, and all I could think to say was how awesome he was and the regular fan gushing crap. I wish I would have had more presence of mind to have a more meaningful conversation... but I was also pretty stoned from what I remember. Wish I had a phone with a camera back then, or something to sign at least. :( I'm a huge System/Serj fan too.

    It's still a great story! We are too hung up on having picture/video proof these days. It was pure luck my brain worked well enough for me to turn on the video function when I shot the videos above. My goal was a picture with him, but fortunately my camera shoots pretty good video too.

  • Wow, lucky you! Great video, he seems like a really nice person :) I'm so jealous, actually! haha

  • Armenian badassery

  • luckiest girl on the face of the universe

  • i think hes from a diffrend country he sounds like it

  • I think I'd probably faint if I met any of the System boys -___- even though I'd love to have a deep and meaningful conversation I don't think my inner fan-girl would be able to allow such a thing.

  • @Pvtbrex Pver the years I figure I have been concert-ly blessed. I have got to see some of my favorite bands of all time, Metallica, Lamb of God, Godsmack, Slipknot, STP, Alice in Chains, and many more. That being I would KILL something to see SOAD. My fucking GOD! I would trade some of my concerts in to see SOAD. A new album and full tour would be nice XD

  • he seems so nice like I thought he would be, hes such a cool dude....would love to meet him someday! haha and tell him my dog is named after him!

  • Serj Tankian is my god

  • That was a cool tattoo. and Serj kicks ass!
